Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of Radeon R5 430 OEM specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The Radeon R5 430 OEM scores 1,200 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Entry Level tier as a Legacy generation graphics card. It is built on the GCN 1.0 (2012−2020) architecture (codename: Oland), manufactured on a 28 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 384 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 24 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 8 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 0.599 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 780 MHz from a base of 730 MHz.
